    Beer keg fuel tank for the 003?

    Funny, I posted on my local Clist a few weeks ago looking for American 15.5 gallon kegs to do just this with them. Seems they aren't to commonly had. Most people want their deposits back and return them. I figured I could modify 2 of them which would give me 31 gallons of stand by next to my...

    Hey all. Couple comments and a question. I just got my injectors back from jerrry. Very fast turn around. He said neither was off by much which again falls under the possible true 89 hours on my machine. I installed injectors and ran the generator for an hour last night without load. Came up...

    Heating oil vs offroad diesel in MEP802A

    Crazy. Here in upstate NY, we got mechanics fighting over used oil. Wanted to buy ads on clist for used oil are also common. Most local car repair shops here in NY (including my old timer guy) burn waste oil/ used motor oil in a motor oil heater for the shop. My guy smiles every time i leave him...

    Can anyone please show me with pics, how you are making your load banks ? I am ready to plug to house, but would prefer to load test the generator first before hooking up an unproven generator to my house. Seeing as I value my house and all. I would like to run a lead off the lugs to a bank of...

    If u want security, an ASK from what i understand will not provide it. I would suggest you weld up a steel cage for it for security, or build a generator shed around it with lockable access doors/panels.

    Yea. I cant see trying to fix a ammeter and frequency meter. Just doesn't make sense. I'll definately be buying his gauge set just as soon as i get my oil pressure gauge, run her good and hot, and ensure she's makin juice properly. It only makes sense.
